So Tiring
so dh and I are not overly sexual people and we kind of work opposite schedules, if you can figure out where I am going here.
Anyway this is the first month we are really trying and we BD'd like 5 days in a row and we are both exhausted
I must say that my DH is such a trooper and he really proved to me this month just how much he wants a baby.
Last night I just kept thinking, I wish we could like use siringe and suck up his sperm and just shoot it into me  that would make it soooo much easier.
But I must say this experience has definetly brought us closer but I wouldnt mind not having to do it again next month
Who else has a hard time with all the BDing and how do you and DH handle it?

Re: So Tiring
Its definatley hard with DH and I. We both work late hours and come home and are Exhausted. He is a trooper and is motivated and he really does show me how he wants this but honestly we are DEAD tired and its shows...
Its funny cuz I was telling DH I wish we had a turkey baster and can inject every nite!
It is quite fun though!

Re: So Tiring
The first 6 months was fun! The next 6 months, still fun but def exhausting. This past year has been down right awful. I won't lie. It has put a strain on that part of our marriage for some time now. When we moved onto IUI's it was almost a welcome relief (turkey baster!)
I have zilch advice, but many hugs to you.

Re: So Tiring
OMG it really can be tiring! When I was trying to figure out my cycles and was starting BDing every other day on CD8 for a 42 day cycle, I was exhausted! DH never gets tired though.

Re: So Tiring
We always start off having a great time, but by the time I actually O (I'm a late Oer), we're both a little tired and feeling the pressure. I work in NYC and get home a lot later than DH, so that doesn't help. I can't wait until we're not on a "schedule" anymore.

Re: So Tiring
We haven't officially started TTC yet, but think we will this cycle...Besides the physical tiredness, I can imagine that the emotional strain must be tough too...
Positive thoughts though - hopefully we all won't be at this for too much longer!

Re: So Tiring
This is our first month TTC and I already brought up the turkey baster idea
We usually don't do*it* every day and so it's kinda tiring but I figure we'll rest during the non-fertile part of the months...

Re: So Tiring
I gotta say.. one of the perks to seeing an RE and getting an IUI is our BD is always just for fun Sorry- I guess everyone has to have their moment to shine .. bragging moment.. no matter what form that might be in!!!
